Description

Man with knife in chair is part of an ongoing series of figure sculptures whose subjects depict power dynamics, sexuality, mental illness and spirituality. The chair, another body, serves as a connecting thread between the works.

Nik Kosmas (b. 1985, Minneapolis, MN), based in Shanghai. His work is a physical, emotional, and spiritual journey through technology, human experience, suffering, and growth. Science fiction, sports practice and science, sex and psychology are fertile fields of research and inspiration. Previous exhibitions include The Generational: Younger Than Jesus, The New Museum of Contemporary Art, New York (US), 2009 and Berlin Biennale 9, Akademie Der Kunst, Berlin (DE), 2016. He was formerly half of post-internet duo AIDS-3D.
